The product is a web-based tool
for assessing and improving the learning disabilities of different
individuals. The learning abilities are assessed through various
tests (known as TOMI), and based on test results, different exercises
(known as SmartExercises) are prescribed for improvement in deficient
areas.
The core
component of the application is a database system that allows dynamic
creation and configuration of tests based on items prepared by Psycometricians,
maintenance of user information and performance history and maintenance
of analytical and research data. The application also has a number
of tools developed to work in web mode on a variety of platforms
including Mac to allow individuals to take assessment tests and
improvement exercises. The system records and monitors the performance
on-line and produces a variety of performance reports on the fly.
The tools make extensive use of graphics, animations and audio effects
to create an entertaining work environment.
